Adult singles want to travel, especially now that their children are grown and they have more free time.

However, most do not have travel companions.

While married they traveled with their spouses.  Then, they took trips with their children or relatives.  Now their children have families of their own. Adult singles don't want to be "just tagging along" when they travel.

They need new adult single travel companions. The anticipated "meaningful relationship" partner may not be around.  Why wait?  Travel now.

Boomer Social Network has a program to satisfy that need.  We have an e-mail list of more than 700 adult singles and host multiple dances and gatherings to introduce singles of similar ages. 

Finding a Travel Companion

Adult singles want a compatible travel companion to share the cost and provide some sense of security while traveling.

Many 50+ singles want to take a cruise.  However, cruise lines charge 150 to 200% more for single occupancy. Unfairly, the single traveler is paying double for food.

Boomer Social will help introduce like minded singles in the 50+ age group that may want to travel together.

They need a friend that that can afford the trip, wants the same travel experience, can get away from work at the same time, has similar interests, similar lifestyle and smoking preferences.

Some cruise lines offer programs to match singles up. Don't do it. You will not meet your new roommate until just before sailing. You will be stuck with this unknown person in a small room day and night.

Selecting the Right Ship

Once single travelers have decided on a cruise, they do not want to be on a ship dominated by families with children or the elderly.  Different ships have different personalities.

Go on a cruise ship compatible with your age group or on a ship that is hosting a large organized singles group of travelers from throughout the nation...if you want to meet singles you may never see again.

Most "singles cruises" are 3-day or 4-day and attract primarily young partyers sailing from Miami or Los Angeles. Only a few cruise ships work well for 50+ singles.

Full-Service Travel Agency

Actual bookings and financial transactions are done through the full-service Spirit of Travel agency in southeast Aurora. The established travel agency takes care of all bookings, arrangements, airfare and hotel accommodations. They sell cruise vacations at the same price as other agencies including online companies.

When purchasing a cruise or international tour, always go through a travel agency.  Cruises and tours are much more complicated than booking a simple domestic airline ticket online.

Adult Singles with Travel Experience

John Edwards and Vicki Norman work as travel planners affiliated with Spirit of Travel.

Through his position as the travel writer for The Colorado Golfer newspaper, John Edwards travels to golf resorts throughout the world.  As national president of the Golf Travel Writers of America, he even arranges visits to luxury resorts for other newspaper and magazine golf writers. 

Vicki Norman is a bicycle enthusiast and racing champion. Over the past 10 years, she has won several Colorado and national senior events and was the Gold Medalist in the World Senior Games. She has biked extensively through scenic resort areas of Colorado and Utah. 

Both have taken adventure shore excursions and explored the ports.  John has toured or played a golf course at every port he has ever visited.

In addition to attending three golf resort conferences a year and taking cruises, John continues his cruise consultant education. He has been on 19 cruises, attended six national cruise training conferences and has done in-port tours of more than 25 additional ships.

He has been a consultant with Spirit of Travel, a full-service travel agency in Aurora since 1988.

More importantly, they are adult singles ages 50+ themselves and can help create a great vacation for you. 

Boomer Social & Travel will provide the opportunity for adult singles to meet other travelers and get to know each other well in advance. After they meet, establish compatibility and coordinate travel dates, we can help them can arrange their next vacation.                                                                                     
Contact John and Vicki at boomersocial@comcast.net.








Hosting a Singles Cruise

It sounds like a good idea but it is difficult to organize Colorado singles for just a party, a dance or a picnic.  A major trip for a group that requires a big cash commitment and individual deposits does not work. 

Rather than hosting large groups, we recommend and plan cruise vacations.

We will create some trips to Arizona and California and welcome our fellow adult singles to participate. 

If you and an agreed travel partner want to go on a singles cruise, we can help with the selection and booking.


Travel Planning Services

For John's recommendations and assistance on an international tour or cruise, e-mail him at boomersocial@comcast.net.

When the Spirit of Travel agency begins to plan your vacation the representatives ask for a $50 per person charge.  When you actually book your trip through Spirit of Travel, there will be no charge and the consulting charge will be credited to your final payment.
